What is your style?
I’m still looking for myself, at the moment : ironic, sarcastic, optimistic depressive

What is your process of work, creation?
In term of personal creation or of customer order? In both cases a story which needs to be spat.

Anecdotes?
Enormously. But they concern only my customers and me.

And the future, how do you see it?
I’m focus on the present.

what do you think about the democratization of the tattoo?
It is positive. You can finally recognize yourself in different styles of tattoo, and find yourself without being obliged to be stuck in the former visual stereotypes of communications which used the tattoo.

Are there one or several tattoos which you regret?
None, I recover some to move on, in the same way as you cut the hair, in the same way as you change your clothing style, city, circle of acquaintances, morphology. My tattoos evolves with me. Without regret.

What pleases you most in tattooer’s job?
The exchange and the real sharing with the customer.

Since how long you tattoo? When and how did you begin?
3 years ago, in apprenticeship in “La Boucherie Moderne” shop, starting with learning hygiene regulations and customer welcome. The real bases, it is very beautiful to know how to draw, but if you do not know how to either receive correctly your customer, or the hygiene which imposes you this job: DO SOMETHING ELSE.

What would be your definition of the tattoo?
An indelible act of an important moment of your life.

What would be your advice(council) to the young tattooers?
Surprise yourself and inspire yourself. Annoy the others and their opinions, but always respect them. RESPECT YOUR FUCKING RULES OF HYGIENE.
If you want to become a star, postulate at M6, Bastard !
